--------------------------------------- Intro
CM7* repeatedly

--------------------------------------- Verse 1
CM7*
    What is our life?
Em*
    A play of passion.
CM7*
    Our mirth the music,
Em*
    music of division.
G                    C/G        G
  Our mother's wombs the tyring houses be,
      C/G
Where we are drest for this
G          C/G                G      GM7/F#         E E@
  Where we are drest for this short, short  Comedy.

--------------------------------------- Verse 2
[Same as Verse 1 except with an added Em9 at end]

Heaven the judicious sharp spectator is,
That sits and marks still who doth act amiss,
Our graves that hide us from the searching sun,
Are like drawn curtains when
Are like drawn curtains when the play is done.

--------------------------------------- Verse 3
AM7               Bm7/A                 AM7    Bm7/A
    Thus march we playing to our latest rest,
AM7         Bm7/A     AM7   Bm7/A
    Only we die in earnest
(twice)

A11/G           DM7/F#  A11/G  DM7/F#
      That's no jest
(twice)
A11/G           DM7/F#  A11/G  DM7/F#
      Only we   die in  earn-  est
(twice)

G       GM7/F#          Em
  That, that's no jest.
